Summary
This process appears as a incredible and progressive event that will not stop till
reattachment of RPE and neurosensory retina happened .
Process of degeneration begins from first hours of RD (Retinal Detachment) establishment
Neuroprotection of photoreceptor following RD is a novel and debatable discussion encountered
in recent years .
How to stop this phenomena and neuroprotective agent role in this issue are a new interest of
researcher.
In the study the investigators are planning to perform a clinical trial to demonstrate the
minocycline neuroprotective effect in a double blind design as this impact has been
implicated previously in a animal study
